Abstract:
A method and apparatus for cannulating vessels and cavities are provided. Such an apparatus includes a y-adaptor having a front leg configured to hold a needle, a guide-wire leg configured to receive a guide-wire, and a syringe leg configured to hold a syringe for aspiration. Once the needle is inserted into the desired vessel or cavity, the syringe may be aspirated to determine if the insertion was successful. Then, a guide-wire may be pushed into the guide-wire leg and into the needle via the front leg of the apparatus. Once the guide-wire has reached the targeted vessel or cavity, a catheter or cannula may be positioned over the guide wire and advanced to the desired location.
